Teaching programs service selected wards and day programs daily, providing
specialist educational support for primary and secondary students who are in
hospital. Specialist secondary teachers are on staff and others are accessed as
needed. Strong partnerships are built with students, parents, enrolled schools,
clinical staff, health professionals and other Medical and Mental Health staff.
If a student will not be able to attend school for a period of time after
leaving hospital teaching support can continue through home visits where a
medical certificate is available.
Medical and Mental Health staff work within inter-disciplinary teams to
support the educational needs of long term patients, including those with
chronic health conditions.
